People should note that Voloshyn tried to disguise Gill’s bribes as ‘media payments’

Do we know how much Farage received for his regular appearance on RT/Russia Today around the time of Brexit?
Three more British MEPs in Nigel Farage’s bloc now alleged to have “followed the script” given to Nathan Gill by an alleged Russian asset, according to prosecutors.

At least eight UKIP and Brexit Party MPs were focus of efforts by Nathan Gill

On why Farage doesn’t apologise for his schoolboy racism:
“if he apologised, he would be turning to his own support base and saying, ‘You’re all guilty too.’ ”
Exactly.
He is racist. So are his voters. He can’t be pissing them off by saying sorry.

Here's Labour peer and founder of Blue Labour, Maurice Glasman, apologising to Nigel Farage on GB News because Keir Starmer called him a racist. Maybe now he should be apologising to Starmer.

When I first heard about Farage’s racist teenage rants, I assumed they were an adolescent phase. But the more we find out — they went on for many years — and his reaction to the revelations (‘liars’) shows no contrition, no apology, suggests these beliefs are still active
